Last round of the league is the Hill Climb . Note -Sign on by 6.15 pm for 6.30pm start. Parking is in the Homecare Car Park, Ludford Bridge, Ludlow, – SY8 1PE.

2018 Club Time Trial Programme
The full programme, with details of courses, start times, cost and leagues, is now available on the Events page, or you can download a pdf version Here . These are sign on the line events, and do not require completion of a pre entry application. You will need to be a member of a CTT Affiliated Club. If not you can entry as a ‘Come and Try It’ competitor – which you can only do up to 3 times in a season.
How to Enter an SCCA Time Trial
If you haven’t entered one before, its quite straightforward.
The main series (Friction Hydraulic) are ‘Open Events’ Click Here for the full 2018 programme . Only members of a CTT affiliated club (which LCC is) can enter, and an entry form has to be completed and sent to the event organiser, usually about 10 days before the event. An entry form can be found Here. more....
Further details of the event: – the course description, cost, event organiser etc. are to be found on the CTT web site – it is fairly simple to use. All SCCA events are in the ‘Liverpool’ District. Use this information to populate the relevant sections on the Entry Form. Send the completed form, with the required amount, to the course organiser.
To assist with race start order you are asked to provide your best time in the past year, and past 3 years, at the event distance – if you need help with this, let me know and I will look at the club’s league records.
That’s about it – because the events held under the auspices of the Cycling Time Trials Association there is a set of rules, which if you have the inclination, you can read – here. You are unlikely to fall foul of them as long as you are a club member, are riding a standard bike (TT or road), wear club kit – and aren’t pumped up on EPO!!
Let me know if you want any further help.
Look forward to seeing you all in the season.
